Customer Reviews

A must-read book

This is a great and excellent book by the creator of Afrocentricity; Pr Asante. It helps us see the world from another and true perspective. It is insightful and soundly reasoned. Go get it!

Molefi is The Anointed Saint!

This book (along with Theory for Social Change) saved my spirit and will save the spirit of any Black person that reads it. It is incredible and the Elder covers just about every aspect pertaining to the Black experience. This book is a precursor to Pan Africanism. Buy it!!!

A racial hermeneutical masterpiece!

Molefi Asante's groundbreaking text The Afrocentric Idea offers an honest critique of the power structures behind the rhetorical foundation of how Americans view race and ethnic tradition. Truly Asante is worthy of being the top contemporary writer in Afrocentricity
